Abstract

The technique of (discretised) light-cone quantisation, as applied to matrix models of relativistic strings, is reviewed. The case of the c=2 non-critical bosonic string is discussed in some detail to clarify the nature of the continuum limit. Futher applications for the technique are then outlined. (To appear in proceedings of the NATO Advanced Workshop on Recent Developments in Strings, Conformal Models, and Topological Field Theory, Cargese 12-21 May 1993.)
